A tall boy can located at a Total Wine in Albuquerque in the late fall. Another first experience with the brewery, time to see how it goes. My Cowtown snifter in place, I make a pour. A relatively clear medium gold liquid finished by a rapidly settling head of completely white foam. I smell nectarines, bread and the barest hint of hops. The taste is an improvement, a surprise to me. Yellow fruit, white bread, malt and a small toffee sweetness. There is also some hoppiness and an accompanying bitterness in there too. Decently okay, but no great thrill.

Aromas are a blend of slightly edgy citrus and resin with some malt and dry grain. More or less kind of a West Coast IPA. Good. Been done before many times.

12 ounce can at WDW Epcot International Food & Wine Festival at Fife & Drum Tavern. Amber orange pour. Small beige head. Light caramel malt nose hints at pine. Caramel malt flavor has bready notes. Citrus hops are bitter with notes of pine as well. More malty than hoppy.
